I am hesitant to write any sort of introduction to this particular story, since a portion of it is true. Only a portion. As such, for reasons which I think will be clear upon reading the story, it seemed to me that writing a sarcastic introduction as I am wont to do would be in bad taste.
It is only a slight exaggeration to say that every new movie and show is “based on a true story.” And as we all know, most of what happens in these movies and shows never actually occurred. This is why so many of them are now “inspired by true events,” so the filmmakers can bend the truth even further.
This story falls squarely into the latter category of “inspired by true events.” Except for one singular occurrence the story is entirely fictional. I am as much in the dark as to the conclusion of this event as the characters.
